Summer End Round Up; Part 2

Jil Sander: This week, all spring and summer merchandise was further reduced to 50% off. The season is only expected to last another two weeks despite the fact that there is quite a good selection. Some sizes, however, may be limited. So call ahead.Jossiline 212-838-6100

Jimmy Choo: The summer season is still going strong at Jimmy Choo. The discount is 50% off and "we have never gone down more. It’s even the same discount at the outlet store," a sales person said. We are told there is a wide range of inventory but sandals are starting to go very quickly.Faisa 212-759-7078

Michael Kors: Michael Kors is not rushing summer away. "We have very few things left but a bit of everything," a sales associate told us over the phone. Those color blocked dresses we all loved are totally sold out but don't worry there are still lots of bags. The discount is at 70% off and the merchandise should be around for couple of more weeks before it makes its way out of the store.Tony 212-452-4685

Prada: "It’s all gone to Broadway," said a sales woman at the Madison Avenue boutique. Down in SoHo, we are told that there isn't much left besides a couple of shoe styles, a few pieces of clothing and absolutely no bags. The current discount is 50% off but last weekend there was a three day 70% off sale, which did a good job of clearing out merchandise.Christina (Madison Ave.) 212-327-4200Michel Hubner (SoHo Store) 212-334-8888

Valentino: There is still a small selection of spring-summer merchandise at Valentino, which includes bags and shoes. The current discount is 60% off on ready-to-wear and 40% off on accessories and shoes.Robert 212-772-6969

About Me

I’m a fashion/business journalist turned blogger. New York Magazine, ABC News, Smart Money and The Wall Street Journal are just a few stops that have prepared me for this particular endeavor. I’m writing on my time about what I know best: Shopping. No sale is too private. No brand too aspirational. I’m breaking it down and dishing the best deals—and we’re not talking just sample sales. This is the real deal gurl!
